This weekend will see The Weeknd make his primetime TV debut in the new HBO series, ‘The Idol.’

Set to premiere June 4, the show sees the superstar (Abel Tesfaye) take on the role of a self-help guru and leader of a modern-day cult who begins a complicated relationship with an up-and-coming Pop idol (played by Lily-Rose Depp).

Directed by Sam Levinson (the mastermind creator of ‘Euphoria)’ and co-produced by The Weeknd, the series promises a “sick and twisted” rollercoaster ride – of the ilk few have seen before.

With just days to go before its big debut, watch the latest extended trailer below…

Brixton-bred singer Santino Le Saint has been riding the wave of momentum after a multitude of critically acclaimed releases.

And rather than rest on his laurels, the Soul-filled singer is keeping the flow of freshness coming.

Indeed, the rising star has poured out potent new single ‘whisky & wine,’ which is housed on his forthcoming (quirkily-titled) EP, ‘new material.’

Produced by Will Brown, the magnetic track unpacks the complex layers of lovers who are so close emotionally yet are navigating being so far away physically.

Ahead of a stacked set of live dates, that include this summer’s Cloud X Festival on a bill that also features JoJo, Le Saint took center stage on That Grape Juice Live.

Showcasing the unique blend of his broad range of influences (which span R&B, Soul, Country, and Rock), Le Saint wowed with a stirring showing of ‘whisky & wine’ as well as a rousing cover of Chris Stapleston‘s ‘Sometimes I Cry.’
